I don’t buy my granddaughters clothes. Their other grandparents are very very well off and the other granny is a serious shopper, so buys them branded clothes. It was a hard thing to come to terms with, as was being discouraged to knit for them when they were babies.
When they tell me that granny so and so buys them such and such I just say how lucky they are.
They still love me and know that I love them.
In a way it is nice to have a relationship that isn’t based on what I might buy for them.
